West to east.

The earth is spinning on its own axis. Thus, the area of the equator directly hit by the sun's heat and more solar radiation compared to any other area. That same heat warmth the atmosphere. Warm air rises towards the pole which is cooler. This is the reason of constant movement of the atmosphere.

The Coriolis force governed the air flows towards the pole. While the earth is spinning plus the movement of air north or south, the air follows a curved path, toward the east.

An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) determine the distance traveled during the first second.

barxatty [35]

The relevant formula we can use in this case would be:

h = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where,

h = height or distance travelled

v0 = initial velocity = 0 since it was dropped

t = time = 1 seconds

g = 9.8 m/s^2

So calculating for height h:

h = 0 + 0.5 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (1 s)^2

h = 4.9 meters

PLEASE HELP 15 POINTS The electric field around a positive charge is shown in the diagram. Describe the nature of these lines. P

DENIUS [597]

The field lines spread apart as we move away from the charge, and they point away from the charge

Explanation:

The electric field produced by a single-point positive charge is a radial field, whose strength is given by the equation

$E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the magnitude of the charge

r is the distance from the charge at which the field is calculated

There are two pieces of information given by the field lines shown in the graph:

The spacing between the lines gives an indication of the strength of the field: the closer to each other they are, the stronger the field. In this case, as we move away from the charge, the spacing between the lines increases, and this means that the field becomes weaker (in fact, it follows an inverse square law, $E\propto \frac{1}{r^2}$
The direction of the lines gives the direction of the electric field, which points away from the central charge. This is because the direction of the electric field corresponds to the direction of the force that a positive test charge would feel when immersed in the electric field: in this case, if we place a positive test charge in this field, then it would get repelled away from the central charge (remember that the electric force between two positive charges is repulsive), and therefore, the direction of the electric field is away from the central charge.

A hydraulic lift raises a 2 000-kg automobile when a 500-N force is applied to the smaller piston. If the smaller piston has an

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

ratio of the forces is equal to the ratio of the surface areas

which is another way of saying the pressure is constant in the system

2000(9.8) / 500 = A / 10

A = 2000(9.8)(10) / 500 = 392 cm²

The emissivity of galvanized steel sheet, a common roofing material, is 0.13 at temperatures around 300 K, while its absorptivit

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Total heat transfer rate is combined convection and radiation transfer rate, multiplied with absorptivity factor. From that equation you can find temperature of the roof using iteration method.

Explanation:

Known:

steel sheet roof emissivity ∈ = 0.13

steel sheet roof absorptivity $\alpha$ _s = 0.65

air temperature T∞ = 16°C ...= 289K

heat transfer rate $G_s$ = 750 W/m2

natural convection h = 7W/m2K

Total heat transfer rate is combined heat transfer rate of convection and radiation, multiplied with absorptivity factor:

$\alpha$ $G_s$ = $q_{conv} +q_{rad} =hA($ T∞- $T_m$ )+∈σA( $T_{surf} -T_{s} )$

$\alpha$ $G_s$ - $h(T_s-$ T∞)-∈σ( $T_{s} -T_{surf} )$ =0

2562-7 $T_s$ -7.371*10^-9=0

Use iteration method to solve for $T_s$

$T_s$ =350.17 K...=77.17°C

In this particular situation, cat would not be comfortable with walking on a roof since its surface temperature is 77.17°C which may even cause burns to its paws.
